Bill and Rhonda always made me feel welcome and part of the family when I would come to visit. Bill loved all the kids like they were his own. I will miss his teasing and orneriness. Glad to have called him a friend among other things, occasionally!

Bill was a joy to be around. I enjoyed his stories and his sense of humor. He was a respected master craftsman. I admired his relationships with his sons. Bill was a straight shooter and genuine to the bone. I will truly miss his friendship.

Bill always said "Good fences make good Neighbors", we had a great fence. Going to miss Bill's stories, jokes, and his love for animals. Will never forget the best neighbor the Chandler's could ever ask for!
